• The screen is blank and Satellite L45-S7423 don't start

  I bought a notebook L45-S7423 Toshiba in January 08 and had no problems with it what so ever, until I tried to connect it to my TV Toshiba 37 ".
  When I did so the tv display would start the laptop and when he got to the display of the desktop, wallpaper etc... It was only in black, so I went into the BIOS setup and choose one of the options (I can't remember which) to try to get a factory reset think that the laptop was not recognizing TV, then I don't know what happened.

  When I turn the power on the screen is black and nothing happens, the CD/DVD drive lights and the power button lights up but monitor lights are dead, the hard drive light is also dead. The battery is charged (at least his indicator is green)
  I tried to put the recovery disk in which I received with it but can not get something to happen, it just seems to be sitting dormant.

  Is - this repairable or it of over or what can I do with that could sort.

  Can someone help me get my new computer running again?

  Hello

  Reading your post I thought that you simply switched the standard for external display view... and so you are not able to see anything on the screen of laptop computers... but to be honest, it's very strange because you should see the home Toshiba on the internal display screen and then the display should move to the external monitor or TV...

  So finally, I think that it is a hardware problem... But it is really not easy to say what exactly is the problem... Maybe it's a misfortune and a dieda motherboard? ¦

  If you are not able to boot from the recovery CD and the laptop does not answer, then you must contact the ASP in your country for assistance.

  Good bye

• Satellite U400-112 - WoW problems and the image is not good

  Hello!

  My laptop is Satellite U400-112 and matching video Intel X 3100.

  When I play in openGL, 3D graphics on minimum and the image quality are not good. The same situation with Direct3D even worse. I have a guess - the game not installed, I copied the folder with the game on another computer, maybe I need to reinstall? I installed the latest drivers for the video of the official website of Intel.

  Maybe someone have the same problem and can help me to solve it.

  Hello

  This only happens on the world of Warcraft or in other games too?

  I'm a bit confused because you have set the minimum graphics and then you wrote that the photo isn't good in my opinion that's normal as the photo isn't good, if you play on minimum graphics settings.
  Maybe you can post a screenshot screen or something else.

  You also need to update DirectX version on your laptop that you can find on the Microsoft Web site.

• Satellite P500 - screen remains blank after updating BIOS 2.90

  I installed the new WOOD update through the station of service and after restart, the screen remains blank (out of service)?

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  And on the external monitor you see a photo or not?

  In my opinion, something goes wrong during the update of the BIOS, and so the entire computer doesn t start anymore. All updates are pre-tested by Toshiba, so I doubt that only the screen isn't working anymore.

  You should try to remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter for an hour. Then install the battery and plug in the AC adapter. Make sure the battery is fully charged and then try to start your laptop.

  It's working now?

• Satellite U400: Installation of XP and change the partitions

  Hello!

  First of all, sorry for my English, it is not good, I hope you understand me!

  I have a Satellite U400, and I would like to create a partition to install XP and have a dual boot with Vista.

  My first question is:
  I have seen that it is possible to download all the drivers xp... but they are the only upgrade, or in the book there is not driver for Xp in default?
  I need to install any drivers? And when I install it?
  Immediately after the first installation of XP?

  The second question is: I tried to resize the Vista partition, but Vista says it's impossible resize as much as I want to, because of file sharing and the snapshot.
  Can you help me solve this problem too?

  Thank you for your support!

  Bye!

  As to the question;

  (* 1) * first of all, you should check what model number you have. Driver Toshiba page provide XP drivers for 4 different U400 series.
  XP drivers that are released in the page are the most recent versions and if you want to use all the features of the laptop all the XP drivers must be installed after the installation of XP operating system.

  But before you try to install XP, you must include the SATA driver in XP. The SATA drivers are located in the Intel storage Manger.
  Please also check this forum for more information how to include the driver SATA in XP operating system.

  (* 2) * I guess you cannot shrink the partition because Vista needs a part on the partition for paging.
  It is an OS feature that allows you to use the HDD as RAM temporal.

  Please visit this 3rd party for more details:
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/Understanding-Windows-Vista-paging-file-size/

  In your case, I would leave a few more space on the partition to make sure that this feature might work properly.

• Satellite U400 - 15E, french Vista and keyboard

  Hello

  I live in England and I would buy a Satellite U400-15E. However it is possible to order it with a french and french keyboard Vista? Is it possible to order online?

  Best regards

  Vincent

  Hello

  Satellite U400-15 is not for the French market it belongs to the series of PSU44E and if you need a U400 with French keyboard layout or French vista then you should take another U400-xxx which belongs to the series of Satellite U400 - 17H or by Satellite U400 PSU44E - 14 p.

  These two laptops Satellite U400 - 17H or by Satellite U400 - 14 p can be bought in France

  Hello aqua9teen1,

  Go to control panel, click Action Center. See if there are errors listed there. You may need to expand to see all questions.

  Then I'd suggest that you update your video drivers. If you have a computer that you purchased in a retail store, then you can go to the computer manufacturer and see if they have updated drivers. Or you can also go to the manufacturer of the adapter driver updates and videos.

  Please answer back with an update.

  Sincerely,

• Satellite Pro S300 - screen is blank and can not restart

  A week ago, I left my Satellite Pro S300-EZ2502 at night (as usual). It was fine tonight.

  The next day, I got a black screen and a flashing light orange on the left side. I tried to turn it off, don't restart, no dice. I tried removing the battery and restart under just current alternative, nothing, I tried the opposite. Nothing. I tried to let the battery and then recharge. No help. Very rarely when I plug it in again, I will get the green light for a few seconds, but then again the yellow flashing light. Nothing EVER on the screen.

  I've only had this laptop since MAY! What's wrong!!

  Have you installed extra RAM in the system?

  Try to remove one of the Modules or swap them around.

  Otherwise, it may be a motherboard problem. An FSL can repair it for you - free if its under warranty.

• Satellite L500 - screen is blank

  Off normally last night, when I turned it on today the screen remains empty. I plugged it up to external montior and that works very well, I have only checked in the Manager device and theres no conflict not showing. The screen is not black, it's like the backlight is he more gray work as soon as the computer is turned on. Also, when I try to change the resolution using the external monitor, the screen flickers like its trying to change but he always comes back to gray.

  Any ideas? Laptop is only 18 months old with minimal use.

  Hi Outkast_IRE,

  > I have hooked up to montior external and works fine
  It was very good, that you did this because if you check if the problem is related to the internal monitor or graphics card.

  Now it s something with monitor internal and it could be the cable, LCD panel itself or something else. More accurate diagnosis is not possible and can be done in an authorized service so you should get in touch with the laptop technicians.

  On the Toshiba Web site, there is a list with all FSA. Give them a call or write an email and they will tell you what to do now.

• Satellite L300D - screen is blank

  On turn on my laptop, I get the Messenger sign and then the screen turns white I think it could be the inverter of the screen itself.

  Also, I can see the light from the screen lights up then go offshore

  any help would be welcome

  Jim She [herd

  The FL Inverter control the backlight.
  If the FL inverter is faulty, the display looks like very foggy.

  I don't know if your display, FL inverter or maybe the card graphic is defective m
  You can check this by connecting the external monitor.
  If the image on the external monitor would be ok, then the GPU is ok and there are only two options: display or FL inverter

• Satellite L300 - screen wakes up and flickers

  L300 screen fell asleep one day and doesn't wake up. Close the lid and then pop it open it again the shortcuts of the light for about half a second then flicks off again.

  Now, I have a secondary monitor attached and programmed to use as primary. Everything else seems fine. Except the laptop screen does not stay on. If I turn off laptop screen, then tell him to use, it's moving on for a half second, then distributed.

  Thus, the light does not work it just will not stay.

  When I first tried to remove the batteries and unplug everything, I came back. For 15 minutes, then he began to blink, then I lost it. Return to burst the quick cover buddies then using speculation and manipulation to navigate.

  Now, just pop on a light then went to start.

  (a) why it started flashing before she vanished to?
  (b) why it turns off as soon as it opens now when it can of course work
  (c) I bought another card of flv in case it has not been fed up there (did not work)

  This has started to happen just after I bought and installed a public service program, I found was to nibble nay chomping vigorously registry entries. So I don't know if it is a file which is is saying that don't turn off that is corrupt, software or hardware.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  > I have a secondary monitor attached and programmed to use as primary. Everything else seems fine
  This would mean that the graphics card is ok and the problem is just the internal display.

  In your case I would contact an authorized service provider because guys can make an accurate diagnosis and replacement of defective material. You can find a list of them here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > find an authorized service provider

  Don t get me wrong but here it s just a user forum of users and this virtual path it s not possible to solve any problems with the equipment or replace it. You need professional help.

• Idle screen goes blank and unable to wake up

  when im playing music I usually put my screensaver for about 15 minutes. It works great when I use it for windows or my images, but recently on a screen saver program I bought online which worked well for a while, then that seems to me now have problems.it starts well on command but in about 15 minutes my computer enters an empty state without displaying anything and my music stops playing then I touch any key and it goes upwards, so what do you think could be my problem?

• Welcome screen also blank and photoshop does not.

  When I load Photoshop CC 2014.2 the Welcome screen appears empty. My Photoshop
  says not responding do not. If I'm running photoshop as a different user, then the
  Home screen works as expected, you can turn it off and then accordingly.

  I was wondering if there is a way to disable the Welcome screen in the registry?
  Any help will be much appreciated.

  a brief update, I opened PS with my method in post 3, I then decided to leave the PS frozen by the empty welcome window 10 minuets. After this time, I went back in the PS and noticed that the content of the Welcome window appeared with the button "never show the Welcome screen" selectable, I disabled now the Welcome screen and you can open PS as usual.
